Thats right, I have heard about them, they are awesome. My Aussie "pick up" (see my avatar) has the same 5.4 motor but with DOHC. No supercharger but still good for 350hp at the flywheel from the factory. Your truck must have some monster torque.

^+1. We just got these motors downunder 6-7 years ago. Wasn't a fan of the Windsor motors, but these knew ones are like a new age Cleveland motor

Very nice! I like the Lightnings minus the stupid tail lights and 2wd. I would ditch those FlowMasters though. Everyone and their brother has them and they don't really sound that good. I've got Magnaflows on my Mustang and they sound awesome (mine are only catback for now, sounds great but no drone at speed).

All I ever wanted was an honest weeks pay for an honest days work.
